Honestly, I don’t think the loyalist rank-and-file would give a shit.
Ancient history.
However…
….if it could be proven that the current GB were, say, having regular cocaine-and-viagra-fueled call-girl orgies on giant beds of laundered cash, it’d be a different story.
Maybe.
😏
Note: I don’t think they are. Sorry to get your hopes up.

this was leaked only few days ago and it's a small segment of the video from the 2024 convention that has already started.
the video shows a jw logo down while worried jws are watching it as a news item on their tv screens, others are seen hiding from the police, others driving is the countryside to escape the authorities.
ThomasMore - “…Spinning it as persecution may be their only way to keep the whole crowd from walking out.”
Hmph.
Good luck spinning being sued, taxed, and legislated to their knees as “persecution”.
(Thanks, BTW.)

this is a mini report on usa that includes an update on ramapo as it was delivered during the british bethel inauguration few days ago....
Beth Sarim - “…The Borg can claim ‘we never said that’…”
Not quite what they do.
They hum and haw and weasel-word, and remind the rank-and-file that “Satan’s World” is out to get “God’s People”, and can’t be trusted, etc., etc…
….and leave ‘em too scared to believe it.
Know how I know?
’Cause that was me.
Right up to the moment that I realized, “hey, they didn’t explicitly deny it…” 🤔.

NotFormer - “…Conveniently, after Rutherford's death.”
Was chemotherapy a thing back then?
’Cause Rutherford had cancer, and that treatment involves transfusions, if I’m not mistaken.

“Persecution!!! Persecution!!!”
https://youtu.be/pirwhbyd4uy?si=x3awvyv4midux8es.
Funny how the Biblical apostles were never admonished to try and trick legitimate secular authorities.
If you go around jabbing folks with a stick until you get a black eye for your efforts, you’re not being “persecuted”.
You're just being an asshole.
i tried selling pre paid legal for about two yers.
hardly made a sale.
none of my friends gave a crap about it.
cyberjesus - “…MLM is the best business model there is to get fastest result. Of course you need to know how to use it.” (italics mine)
Being shady as fuck and not giving a shit if people get victimized doesn’t hurt, either.

MLMs are just secular cults.
Why else do y’all think they attract so many fundagelicals?

The more they could portray themselves as more “Biblical” and holy (whilst really just being contrarian), the easier it was to poach disgruntled ex-Protestants and -Catholics who’d grown tired of the “liberalizing” (really, just adapting with the times) of their original churches.
It actually reminds me a little of Nixon’s “Southern Strategy”.
how many of the millions of jws know it’s not true but stay anyway?.
my guess is most jws know it’s not true on a subconscious level to an extent but they don’t want to think about it too much and would never ever voice it out loud.. but this is probably true with all religions around the world?.
The GB knows it’s wrong…
…but believes it’s True…
…at the same time.
Why would life-long loyalists with no other prospects view things any differently?
